Camera doesn't save images. SMS service centre doesn't automatically set number - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

Hello everyone,
I've got my prophet G4 for may be 3 years, but I just stepped into Custom ROM world for a few days. I've done the hardSPL and upgrade my phone to WM6, using the first version of this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374155 Thanks to varanusvincent for creating this ROM
I've got some problems with my prophet and finding ways to fix them:
1. My camera, If I set it to save pictures to main memory, everything is fine. But when I set it to save pictures to my SD AData 1gb, when I take pics, the camera shows the previews as normal, but if I press power button to set my phone to sleep mode, and turn on again, the picture in the preview is gone and isn't saved into my SD. I lost heaps of good fotos just because it is my habit to turn off the phone by using that power button.
I tried to use the HTC Camera 4.11 (ELF/HTC Touch) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314798 Seems like the problems has been fixed but I just dont want to use that software due to some battery problems...
Changing another SD card can't help.
So is there any way to solve my camera issue ?
*Note: It's not a ROM's bug coz I tried with 4 difference ROMs but the problem still there.
2. The Vista ROM I'm using may be has a bug in the SMS system. It doesn't get and save the SMS centre mobile number. I always have to do it handly whenever I restart my phone. And seems like the Wifi has some connection problems, too. It hardly connects to my network and sometime suddenly disconnect its self.
I'm using Vodafone New Zealand.
By the way, any suggestion for the best Vista touched ROM ?
Thanks for any helps guys

wikcus
this part of the flash guide
10. Now you have to hard reset your device.
Press simultaneously: Reset Button + CameraButton + RecordButton.
Hold them pressed until the "Boot Options" menu appears on the screen.
Select the options as follows:
(to select items use Record Button, to change values use Camera Button)
Enable KITL -> NO
Clean Registry Hive -> YES
Format Storage -> YES
When done, press DPad and wait until OS starts.
should delete the storage of the former rom
perfect it worked like a charm. thank you very much Rudegar. much appreciated. i have another problem still. my memory card is not working at all. it does not see it at all. im using C_ShekharAKU3.5b.R40.P24_public rom and the operating system is perfect other than the fact that my memory card does not work. but if i slide it in with the 2577 dir on it it installs the probrams perfectly. im confused it can access it but does not alow me to go there.
thank you for the help
wickus
sorry to mess you around but now it works. im fine. thank you anyway your prompt help is greatly appreciated.

Help my camera isn't starting anymore!

I'd tryied to hold camera button and from programs menu but both wont work. What can I do? Please can someone help me out?
First off try a soft reset, poke the stylus in the reset hole for a second or two, you won't loose any information or applications trying this, switch the unit back on and try again from the hardware button and/ or the Start/ Programs/ Camera icon
If the above didn't fix it try a hard reset, this will wipe the device back to the same configuration it was when you got it - you WILL LOOSE data doing this - Mike
Thanks for the rep. but,
I did hard reset and it still wont start. AND NOW the camera icon isn't even in the program folder anymore?! help!
Please, anybody?

This is NOT possible if you hardreset. Hardreset again and try. If it still doesnt work, your unit is most probably defective and you'll have to exchange/send in for repair it.
Just to be sure: You use the erase memory tool in the control panel and had to enter "1234" and then click yes, right?
Yes, I used the erase memory tool
I have itself problem, the reset (soft) don't resolve. Sometimes the camera starting, but frequently NO.
Sorry for my english.
i had the same problem ad now its suddenly working

I'm Trying yet to solve
Looking at the camera launching process, I've found a link like:
_camera.lnk
that contains:
21#"\Windows\Camera.exe" ?CameraRc_Grey.dll,-1106
any idea if that is normal content, looks curious for a link especially the interrogation point mark?
What about the -1106 figure ?
Is it possible that this link being corrupted ?
If yes how to modifiy it, seems a ROM file
Any help welcomed
same problem here,
sometimes cam will work but it to often will not. :/
sure ift the cam even dont in factory default config (hard reset) it is broken.
I got longest working duration in factory default, approx one to two weeks.
using third party binaries the failure appears randomly.
Im pretty sure this is a software issue, else a soft rest wont fix it, eh ?!
workaround:
one but very poor solution is, once the cam starts, _never_ quit it, just minimize.
yep, I know ... but the only way I found atm.
Same problem
I have got no news about cam.
I called htc support, they told me to install a fix for camera that I found in htc e-club.
But that fix is not for our problems, is for camera quality.
I installed it but the problem still remain.
Sometimes it goes, sometimes no...
Edit/Delete Message
same problem here. thank you for HTC reply
A solution is to take the pda off without the battery for some minutes...
After that the cam works...
But for also some time... then It goes down again...
I've been having the same problems with the camera.
"Camera" doesn't appear in Programs but "Camera album" does.
When i use file explorer to go to the .exe file and i tap it, nothing happens.
EDIT: i've just used file explorer to go to the windows directory en what do I see: now i have two camera executables (but not one of them reacts)
In file explorer i see this:
Camera 11/12/07 733K
camera.exe.0409.mui 11/12/07 28,9K
camera 11/12/07 35,2K (with Opera icon, i think it's the help file)
camera 18/06/07 35B
CameraRc_Grey.dll 11/12/07 398K
I've never seen the last two files
Hello
i´ve got this Problem nearly three weeks. I´ve installed a new rom and Nadavi camera. Nothing turn the Camera Problem. Sometimes it works sometimes not. I´ve got the idea that the Software that is installed on the device cause the Problem. When i want to send a mms from the camera the camera strikes after that. When i used Mobile Navigator 5.0 the Camera strike again.
I don´t have an exactly answer for the Problem but i´m pissed of!!!! HTC can´t help already

P.S. hope you understand my bad english
I sent the pda to htc support...
I have to call them on 15th june.
When I'll have news I will tell you

TC camara problem

Hi,
I tried to search the forum, I googled around, but I seem to be the only one with this problem:
sometimes (I can't specify it anymore, there is not routine in this problem!) when I open my camera the screen stays black, as if the camara was covered with something (which it isn't, of course!)
I already hard resetted my Crouise, problem was fixed for like 2 weeks, but today, problem turned up again.
Soft reset does not help... any ideas except throwing it at some hard wall?
Edit: Phone is really slow when this problem come up and the only way to leave camera mode is to press the red phone button or do a soft reset
Sounds quite bad, may be a hardware fault...
One hard reset temporarily solved the problem, if you did the hard reset again would it again solve the problem (for a while?). Backup all your files and give it a try.
If not then it may be a hardware problem, in that case I would recommend you send it back to HTC or O2.
If it temporarily solves the problem then it is probably a software issue - I would recommend you try flashing a new ROM, or flash the original ROM.
Just a suggestion...
I did a hard reset again today, backing up my Files via Spite Backup, but after reseting, Camera still isn't working...
Recovering the backuped files didn't help either...
F**k, I really don't want to sent the phone in, because I only have this one, and I sure it's gonna take some weeks to get a replacement...
Is there any way of reinstalling the camera...*hoping for hope*
I have exactly the same problem and i haven't find annything to fix this.
Need some help please
I've got the same problem, I have only find (for my case) some situations...
If you turn on the pda, it works.
if you wait for a while, it works again.
if you wait for some hours, it stop working...
then, if you regular turn off and on the pda, is not secure that it works.
If you soft-reset, it works.
If you keep the pda connected via usb or ac cable, it works everytime (I'm testing it now and it's from this morning that the cam works perfectly).
So I think is a only software problem, exactly I think is apmd error.
Power saving shut down cam device, and when you click camera.exe, the os is not so quickly to return on the device...
I ask to the experts (not me, obviously) if it can be a possibility...
Also can I set, only for cam device, the power saving disabled? So I can test my consideration better?
Thanks

HTC Polaris (Touch Cruise) hangs periodically

Hi,
I've had my Touch Cruise for a few months, and I like it a lot.
I've experienced that it hangs from time to time, but only about 5 times in total up to about a week ago. I've not installed software or new firmware on it.
About a week ago the phone started freezing daily. It happens when the phone is in standby (i.e., screen off/buttons locked). When it happens, I receive no phone calls (it gets unusually quiet...) and when I try using the phone, I get no response when pushing the on/off button to bring the phone out of standby. The only way to get the phone up and running appears to be to remove and reinsert the battery.
Has anyone else experienced something similar? Is there a known solution?
When I read your post correct: you haven't done a hard reset until now.
I suggest to do a hard reset => all data and programs installed (which you don't have according to your post) will be lost.
For performing a hard reset see

Thank you for your suggestion. I synchronize e-mails, contacts and calendar with an Exchange server, so I guess these data will be safe on the server even after the hard reset. However, photos and other data will be lost, I fear, unless I do a backup first. Any suggestions for a good - and easy - backup method for the device?
Sprite Backup is perfect for the job. I use it frequently.
Good luck
Quite the same problem to me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424587
I performed a hard reset two days ago and (cross fingers...) no more hangs up until now.

This was included with my Polaris on the CD - check it!
Exchange Server stuff will be safe, all other documents (pictures, videos, etc.): locate the files you need and save them either to the storage card (recommendation: total commander for pocket pc, freeware - just use google) or you save it to your pc (Active sync and click explore).

I had the Standby of Death SOD this is when the phone fails to come out of standby with a power button press. This issue only affects some people on some networks. I'm not sure if its a network problem or a software problem but as only a minority of people have it, I suspect its mainly a network problem there is a software solution.
The solution is to change the phone settings band option from auto 3G/2G to either 3G Only (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) or 2G Only (GSM + AUTO) depending on your requirements.
Also read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540943&highlight=standby&page=2 where the resolution was to get a new SIM.
Obviously this only solves the problem when the crash is because of the sim and/or settings which impact the sim. To rule out a software cause its best to start with a hard reset.

Samsung sgh-i780 stuck on vibrate mode

Hello,
In the last few months, I have experienced a strange problem:
Sometimes, when I turn off the ringer and use on vibration, the phone seems to stuck on this mode even if I turn the ringer back on. I cannot play any kind of sound until I restart my phone. To solve this problem once and for all, I have performed hard reset, however the problem persists.
I miss very important calls as a result of this problem, is there a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Michael
I remember a friend having this issue. I seem to remember the solution.
explore to application data/volatile and delete all files within folder and soft reset.
If you don't feel safe about it first copy or move all files to a new folder on your sdcard before deleting.
hope it helps.
good day.
I saw this solution in another forum and it did not work. Besides, I had performed a hard reset so all my phone memory was deleted, however the problem returned.
Maybe the problem is on the SD card or something.
What type of results do you get plugging the head phone adapter in and out? But only when the lack of sound occurs.
And any suspect software installs recently?
good day.
I need to wait until the problem reoccures to check with the headphones.
The softwares installed on my device are:
Opera mobile
Opera mini
SPB Time
SPB Mobile
S2U2 (I have unistalled it for now to check if it has something to do with my problem)
* I think the problem began after I had restored my phone using SPB backup a few months ago, however I am not sure 100%
Thanks again
